Answer:
The correct answer is - A. pea plants do not self-pollinate.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mendel used pea plants for his experiments due to their short life span, pea plants reproduce quickly, easily observed traits, could be controlled by Mendel by the cross-pollination.
Pea plants are self-pollinating plants in nature, Mendel had to remove the anthers of the same flowers to prevent them from self-pollinating themselves. Therefore, the option that says that pea plants do not self-pollinate is not correct.
